Who Are Herefordshire Council Really Working For..?

Herefordshire Council will discuss the potential resettling of least 125 refugees in Herefordshire over a period of five years when it’s (sis) cabinet meets next week.
Because it's not really the voters of Herefordshire, is it?
The council and its partners have successfully resettled 95 refugees in Hereford between 2016 and 2019.
The families have been welcomed by local people and have made a positive contribution to their local communities in a variety of ways.
None are mentioned, strangely... Wouldn't you have thought they'd have examples?

Are there any clues as to what these nebulous 'positive contributions are? Well, yes, actually. They are buried in the alternative options.
1. Not to make any further commitment to the refugee resettlement scheme at this time.
This option is not recommended as participating in the scheme broadens Herefordshire’s diversity, supporting economic and community growth and resettlement has been successful, suggesting little reason not to extend further.
There you have it. That's the 'positive contribution' they make, according to the good burghers of Herefordshire. They aren't those awful white Christian voters....

Well, voters of Herefordshire, you know what to do, don't you?

  1. In to point out the obvious, that's 125 'heads of household' so closer to a 1000 people than 125, and all them eligible to use 'family reunification' rules to bring in their siblings, in-laws, etc and all of them can then bring in *their* family members.

  2. If Herefordshire wants them it's welcome to them. Better they go there then come to my town which is already richly blessed with them.

  3. Anon. From what I can gather the ordinary people of Herefordshire who I've had contact with by email etc don't want them but the council and various 'refugees welcome' idiots do.

    DJ. You are correct that this is a tip of the iceberg as these alleged 'refugees' will be a bridgehead for 'family reunion'

    It's almost as if they can't do maths. Or think we can't...

    "If Herefordshire wants them it's welcome to them. Better they go there then come to my town which is already richly blessed with them."

    Which town isn't these days?
